(Reuters) - Steve McClaren, the former England head coach, has been sacked as manager of Championship side Derby County for the second time in three years, the second-tier club announced on Sunday.
McClaren's second spell at the Midlands club, whose challenge to get back into the Premier League has slumped dramatically, was ended after just five months following Derby's 3-0 defeat at second-placed Brighton & Hove Albion on Friday.
